Found My Poetic Side: I Think by doyin13(m): 1:36pm On Aug 20, 2007 |
I have always been left befuddled by the art of poetry, seeing it as at best selfindulgent. Well, I decided to make an effort. I am sure I have only grazed that elusive 'poetic side', but if you don't like it, tough, take me to Judge Judy, if you like. What makes a man Is it the size of his wallet or the width and length of his barn Or is it measured by the number of welts he inflicts on the back of his woman or perhaps how many male backs he puts to the ground or might we measure a man by the length and girth of the pod hanging from his legs or the decibels of the moans which his woman produces or is it just the gift of the gab and how many female conquests that obtains or is it a spirit of the reckless a thirst for danger a mistaken brevity a ready excuse when real men make their early exits from this world as real men it seems should |

You seem somewhat befuddled still with this piece. Poems are usually titled, did you know that? Good work Doyin. I believe you will make your mark if you continue this way. |

@Iwerebor It is a new innovation. A non titled poem. How refreshing |

doyin13:If you think not naming your baby is an innovation, that's fine by me. Take care. |
